Selphyl Dermal Filler

WHAT IS THE SELPHYL SYSTEM?

The Selphyl System is an anti-aging procedure which allows physicians to prepare an
autologous Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) using a small amount of the patient’s
blood, which is used as a dermal filler. The treatment is injected in the
patient’s face and it releases proteins which trigger cell growth and migration.
This enables the creation of a stronger collagen structure and, thus,
significantly improves the patient’s physical appearance.

Because it uses the patient’s blood it has been come to be known as the vampire
filler or the vampire facelift. This procedure was first introduced in 2009 and,
since then, it has been featured in multiple print, radio, and television shows,
including “The Rachel Ray Show”and “The Doctors”.

The Selphyl Treatment takes place in a physician’s office and requires no
general anesthesia. The treatment is typically completed in about 30 minutes or
less, and it is not uncomfortable.

When a patient arrives at the office, the doctor draws out a small amount of
blood into a vacuum tube containing a cell separator gel. That gel enables the
division of blood components- red and white cells go below the gel, and the
plasma and platelets stay within it. They are, transferred into a second vacuum
cube containing a calcium chloride solution. After about 10 minutes, the
Platelet- rich Fibrin matrix forms and it is ready to be injected into the
treatment area.

The recovery is short and easy. Some mild swelling or bruising is possible, but
usually resolves in 8-24 hours.

The results of the Selphyl treatment are visible in 2 to 3 weeks. As new cells
form, the treated areas become smoother and signs of aging are greatly
diminished.

BENEFITS OF THE SELPHYL SYSTEM…

More then 15,000 treatments have been performed around the world. One of the
greatest benefits is that it is a completely individualized treatment, created
from the patients own blood. Because of that, the patient’s body will readily
accept the treatment. Since it is an autologous treatment, there is virtually NO
risk of allergic reaction. The product contains NO animal or synthetic products,
making it extreamly safe and diminishing the possibilities of side effects.

The Selphyl System helps give a fuller appearance to hollow cheeks and pock
marks, helps diminsh acne scarring, and greatly improves the appearance of the
nasolabial folds ( “smile lines”)
